If there's one thing that satisfies me more than how many people like 5M.net, it's how many of the people who don't are idiots. Read the second post here.

That's right -- we at 5M.net are copying script text. Who can forget that classic TOS moment when Kirk said "Raichu is a cutey," or the time Captain Janeway said "crap" seven times in a row?

Doofus.

just as i was thinking how utterly unfulfilled my life is right now,
i click on zeke's link ...
and realise that my life is more fulfilled than the ones that have nothing better to do than mock people who think we are trying to copy script text for other people to read

That's all I have to say. Well, that and that I hope that Leslie gets a line in the "This side of paradise" fiver, but that's a different thread...

I like how the title of the thread is "SciFi Recaps." Reading comprehension is obviously not a strongpoint in that forum.

God forbid we give this person a copy of "A Modest Proposal." They'll get up in arms about all the baby-eaters in the world.

Not that I advocate baby-eating.

Reminds me of when a friend came round to my house as I was reading a fiver (Terra Nova). I left the room for a minute and when I came back he nodded at the screen and said "Oh you're not reading the Star Trek Scripts now, are you!?" I looked at him, then at the screen and read out the first lines:

'Reed: Hmm...looks like nobody's home. We should probably blow up the planet just to be on the safe side.
Archer: Okay, you'll be on the away team. I don't want you at that weapons console unsupervised.'

He kinda got the idea. Not a Script.

I like how the guy who posted it agreed with our moronic friend, then said it was still 'humorous'. I'd still rather be in this forum than that one...

It appears that more gifted heads are beginning to prevail. Read the later posts.

Someone didn't read the internet.

There's nothing more stupid than...err...a very stupid person.

Who doesn't like 5MV, of course

Looks like it was just the one doofus. As e noted, the other two posters don't share his mistaken idea of what we do here.
